Play Box (Ashley and Bailey)

Hey ya'll! Hope you enjoyed our play-box facilitation tonight.

We wanted to find a way to incorporate mindfulness and meditation in a way that was easy to understand and fun to do.
We thought with such short time it would be easier to perform an activity for mindfulness rather than meditation, because the meditation exercise we had in mind would've taken more time and required more physical activity.

Overall, I feel like we did a good job of explaining the differences and similarities between mindfulness and meditation.

However, I feel we could have done a better job of going in depth about meditation and what kind of activities could be performed.

Something we could change in the future would be to explain the activities more slowly and thoroughly. With such short time, we tried to go through them as quickly as possible, which didn't leave much time to throughly perform the activity.

philanthropic foundation

For this blog, I chose to research the RI Foundation. Their mission is   a proactive community and philanthropic leader dedicated to meeting the needs of the people of Rhode Island.  Founded in 1916, the Rhode Island Foundation is one of the nation's oldest and largest community foundations. They are Rhode Island's only community foundation and the largest funder of Rhode Island's nonprofit sector.  The Foundation was organized at the Rhode Island Hospital Trust Co.  in June 1916 by a small group of prominent citizens. It was modeled after the first community foundation established in Cleveland two years earlier. "There is a growing belief that the charitable problems of each generation can better be, and should be, solved by the best minds of each generation," the founders wrote. Jesse H. Metcalf, an industrialist and United States Senator, gave the Foundation its first gift of $10,000. Metcalf was a dominant influence in the development of American ...

Blog post #8: direct mail

There are many similarities and differences between these letters. For example, some of the letters have similar pictures, except for "United We Dream." Another similarity is that they are all written in bold and italicized font, and have a personal intro. However, YIA and Downcity didn't have personal introductions, and YIA contained a lot of writing in the main part of the email as compared to the other organizations. Also, Downcity is the only group who named and thanked the 2017 funders. Lastly, all of the organizations except for YIA had facts which included numbers and stats. The organizations used many tools such as bold/italicized words and sentences to show the severity and need of their cause. They all have photos of people who have been impacted by the different organizations, the International Rescue Committee in particular. In my opinion, Downcity seemed to be very lenient when it came to asking for money as compared to United We Dream, which had ...

blog #10 due 4/9

after reading : https://drive.google.com/file/d/18cGx8K7u_h6ELMa0QcBXrejHHsBrlEf6/view The central argument of this reading seems to be that people who work in the social justice system in the United States have limited funding and resources for their nonprofits. Basically the people who work in the social justice system have to fight for government funding for their programs and it is completely unfair. In the process of fighting for government funding for their programs, this takes time away from fulfilling their nonprofit's mission and defeats the whole purpose of "nonprofits".The issue is that these nonprofit organization have been more concerned with staying in business, that they forget why they created this nonprofit in the first place (social justice) The main critiques of the nonprofit sector is that they spend too much time trying to raise money and ask the government to fund their programs. The funding system is not set up for the nonprofit sector to succee...
